Typhoon Olga Trail Characteristics

Track Track and Turn toward characteristics

Typhoon Olga (197219) 的生命史始 at Northwest Pacific远洋海域, formedPosition位 at lat 7°N, 178°附近. 在初始阶段, 该系统呈现稳定的WNMovingTrend, 从10月20日至10月25日期间, 其The latitude由7°N缓慢N抬至12.6°N, During则由178°E大幅W移至162.6°E, 横跨了广阔的洋面. 这一阶段路径相对平直, 未出现剧烈摆动.

As the system continues toward NW direction advancing and gradually approaches the sub-tropical high-pressure edge, its Moving path begins to occur at 6:00 p.m. on October 27th, Typhoon center at lat 17.5°N, 147.8°, at this time reaching the most W-end position near life history. Then, the path clearly turns to NE direction, Go to accelerate N. From October 28th to October 31st, Typhoon center quickly toward the high-latitude sea area Moving, latitude from 20.5°N sharply rising to 48.2°N, length also to Eward backward to 175.5°E. The entire path shows the characteristics of the typical 'pellets' line, and the entire course has no landfall record, always on the ocean.

Intensity Evolution and Historical Comparison

在Intensity变化方面, Typhoon Olga经历了明显的增强, 巅峰维持及减弱消亡过程. formed初期为Nameless, 随后快速加强, at 10月22日发展为Typhoon 级别. 值得注意的是, 系统在10月23日曾短暂 weakened into Severe Tropical Storm, 但在10月25日后重新组织并再次增强. 10月27日06:00, Typhoon 达到peak intensity, max wind 录得53m/s, 定级为Super Typhoon. 巅峰状态维持Time较短, 随后在 toward 高The latitudeMoving过程中, 受环境场影响迅速减弱. 10月29日降至Typhoon 级别, 最终在10月31日转化为Severe Tropical Storm后结束观测.

The data show that its Max Wind 53m/s Super Typhoon grade, high at 1999 Olga (199906) and 1961 Olga (196121) typhoon level peak intensity. although in 1970 Olga (197002) also reached Super Typhoon level, but in 1972 Olga completed a complete Intensity life cycle in the far ocean, its latter period in the high latitudes (lat 40 degrees above) stillins certain Intensity characteristics, reflecting the seasonal thermal and dynamic structural stability of Typhoon.
